Toddler

about

This song is from the point of view of a toddler, but when the lyrics are sung by a grown person, they take on new meanings.

lyrics

Every morning when I wake
It's a blindingly bright new day
And I need you to keep me
From making a complete mess of everything

Remember, I'm three feet
Tall monsters love me
I need you to keep me
Grounded

Any second I could take off running
You know I would
Every shiny new surface
Is tempting me

Remember, I'm three feet
These giants care for me
I might cry
If you don't hug me

Will you keep me from climbing up the shelf?
Will you chase me when I go running for the stairs?
Keep me from reaching too high
Keep me from reaching too high
